I look at the practice of law as a chance to advocate for people who are struggling through difficult and upsetting litigation or simply haven't received a fair shake. This has been my philosophy since I became an attorney in December 1989, and it has stayed with me for over three decades in multiple legal arenas, including criminal, family, and juvenile court—as well as appellate practice.
I enjoy a number of personal activities, too, that keep me happy and well-balanced. These include sports, music performance, hiking, reading, and writing. I am also the proud grandfather of five little ones. I look forward to watching them change our world for the better.

Tom saved my life and protected myself and my child. HE IS THE BEST! It was my first time fighting in court. I was scared and lost. Tom gave good support and straight forward directions. The only thing I had a problem with is his response time back to me sometimes. Later learning it was my impatience...

I had Tom to represent my case during my complicated divorce and child custody. My case lasted longer than expected. He explained to me the family law clearly and he understood my situation. As I went through my divorce, I had tendencies to become subjective and wished the law could grant everything ...

Thomas Alongi is a complete professional who is brilliant in his understanding and interpretation of family law. I came to him in a desperate state where a previous attorney had completely botched my case by untimely filings. My first encounter with Tom’s firm was a very compassionate and understa...
